The driveway alignment exploits an existing track in
some parts, and although the central portion of the
driveway is proposed sidelong to a moderately
steep slope; given the presence of stiff to very stiff
residual soils and XW materials from surface, no

landslip would develop, subject to implementation of
the recommendations in Section 4 (e.g. foundations

would be Low as per AGS 2007.

The potential impacts on slope stability of the development components have been assessed, and the
measures recommended below in Section 4 have been designed to mitigate those impacts.
3.2.1 Effluent Disposal
Ground Drill has prepared an effluent disposal report (Ref. Job No. 20/373-2, dated 22 March 2021). The
indicative proposed effluent disposal area is located to the east of the proposed building area, as illustrated in
the Ground Drill report, which is attached at the end of this letter. This area is considered acceptable from a
slope stability point of view. Should the proposed effluent disposal area be moved, Tectonic must be notified
to re-assess the impacts on slope stability.
Ground Drill has recommended application rate of 3 mm/day using a covered surface irrigation system.
Considering this application rate compared with the trigger levels required for the occurrence of a landslide in
this setting (e.g. a severe rain event), the effect of the irrigation on slope stability would be considered
minimal. Nevertheless, it is recommended that the land application area be revegetated as soon as possible.
Vegetation should include native species which are used for stabilisation of steep slopes and suitable for wet
soils with high nutrient loads (e.g. Lomandra).
The on-site effluent disposal system must be located a suitable distance away from any watercourse,
dwellings and recreation areas. Setback distances are subject to the level of treatment proposed and shall
be in accordance with Local and State Government requirements.
